RICHES OF BOLIVIA.
A Country Whose Mineral Resources Arc

Bolivia is doubtless the richest in miner ais of any land on the globe, and millions upon millions of precious metals have been taken out of her mines by the primitive process which still exists, and must exist till railroads are constructed to carry ma chinery there Every ounce of ore that finds it's way out of the Andes''is carried on the back of q man or a llama, and tho quartz is crushed by rolling heavy logs upon 1t By this method Bolivia exports from twelve to fifteen millions of gold and silver annually, and the output would be fabulous if modern machinery could be taken into the mines The distance from Jujuy to the fsrthest mining district of Bo- livia is seven hundred miles, and 1t is DO farther to the diamond fields of Brazil Bo- livia offers grant of twelve square leagues of land and forty thousand. dollars mile for the extension of the Argen- tine Northern to Sucre. and En- glish capitalists are ready to continue the work as soon as the Argentine Government drops 1t at the boundary linc When it is built the owners of this road will hold the key to country which has excited the cupidity of advcnturers since the New World was discovered.

It may not be generally known that sauerkraut is a dangerous explosive A Philadelphia kraut maker, who was cut ting up five thousand cabbages day and probably knows what he is talking about, says: If tank of kraut is sealed when frosh, there is sure to be trouble. 4 cask of gunpowder is hardly more dangerous than tightly -corked barrel of sauerkraut. Az the stuff ferments it swells, and if vent is not furnished there is an explosion that shakes the foundation of the store and fIightens the life half out of the store keeper, while the neighbors raise cry of dynamite plot.

AN HISTORIC GUN.
The Interesting Story of Heroism Told by
 Il Precious Relic.

v
 q Precious Relic.
 The following inscription is written on the back of looking-gIass now in the pos session of the Woodson family, near Pros pect, Prince Edward County, Va:
 'sThis belonged to stephen Tarlton, who was my great-grandfather, and who died in 16s7. ! have had the present frame put to 1t this i4th December, l79s. CHARLES WooDsoN
 In the same Woodson family is very large, long and heavy single-barrel gun, with a flint lock It is of such large dimen- sions for 9 shoulder-piece that it strikes every one who sees it with utter astonish- ment It looks as thought 1t were made fos one of the sons of Anak The following M on record in the old family Bible:
 John Weodson, son of Robert. married to Judith Tarlton, was physician He was killed near his house as he was returning from visit to patient at the second mas- sacre in Virginia The Indians attacked the house, which was barred against them and defended by Judith hs wife, and one Ligon, a shoemaker, with long gun. now my property, which bears his name Qligonl He killed three Indians the first fire and two the next, while Judith, the wife, killed two Indians, who came down the chimney--one she scalded to death, the other she killed Wlbu bne IouStinB spit when tue lnulaus, getting alarmed, fled, Ligon fired at them the third time and killed two more. So nine Indians were killed and the family saved by the gallantry of Lgon and Judith 1"
 Now the Judith mentioned here was the daughter of Stephen Tarlton, who owned the looking glass, and he died in 16S7. The second massacre was in 1644. From these dates it is evident that the looking glass is at least two hundred years old. and the long gun, counting from the second massacre, is two hundred and forty-three years old; but there is a tradition that John Woodson, who married Judith Tarlton, and who came from Dofsetshire, England, with Sir John Harvey in the year 1925, brought the long gun with him." If so, as is probable the gun is at least two hundred and sixty-two years old, and is one hundred and fifty-one years older than tho United States. The wood in the stock of the gun and the frame on the looking glass arc very sound, not worm-eaten or in the least de- cayed. Another century added to their a. ready hoary age it would seem would not make any impression on them Richmond Stdt6
